ETHEREUM, the original smart contracts crypto, is up 4% overnight as its price nears $3,000, currently trading for $2,912.

Bitcoin is up 1.3%, and changing hands for $52,300. 

Most of the large-caps are in the green today, notably Solana (+3%) and Polygon (5%). 

The Fear and Greed Index continues to point to Greed in the markets, but the Relative Strength Index (RSI) has calmed somewhat from last week’s overbought position.
